On Thursday at the Chandigarh airport, a CISF constable had a heated encounter with actress-turned-MP Kangana Ranaut, who was elected from Mandi, Himachal Pradesh. The constable, Kulvinder Kaur, has been placed under suspension and has been summoned by the CISF Commandant Office for questioning. Kaur has been on duty at the airport for the past two-and-a-half years and was even seen on television after the incident, expressing her displeasure towards Kangana's statements during the ongoing farmers' agitation.
In the midst of the chaos, Kaur mentioned that her mother was among the protesters when Kangana made certain remarks that deeply upset her. "She gave a statement that the farmers are sitting there for Rs 100. Will she go and sit there? My mother was sitting there and protesting when she gave this statement," Kaur shared her side of the story.
Reports suggest that Kaur was also upset with Kangana for labeling the protesting farmers as "Khalistanis". The incident occurred when Kangana was en route to New Delhi for a BJP Parliamentary Party meeting scheduled for Friday. Kangana herself took to X to post a video confirming the eyewitness reports of being "slapped and abused" by Kaur while she was at the Chandigarh airport.
Kaur's actions were a result of her anger towards Kangana's previous remarks on the farmers' protests in Punjab. Kangana assured her followers that she was safe and unharmed, but expressed her concern over the increasing violence and terrorism in the state. A video shared on X immediately after the incident shows the commotion that followed. It is said that there was a minor scuffle before the incident, which was initiated by Kangana's refusal to hand over her mobile phone for a security check.
Kaur's brother, Sher Singh, who also actively participated in the farmers' protest as a member of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha, spoke to a news channel and shared that his sister has been a part of the CISF for 16 years. He also mentioned that her husband is also a member of the CISF. Meanwhile, farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher condemned the actions of the BJP leaders who, according to him, are defaming the farmers. "The elections in Punjab were conducted peacefully. It is not fair to prevent the farmers from reaching Delhi and use force against them," he stated.
In the recently concluded Lok Sabha elections, Kangana emerged victorious over her opponent from the Congress party, Vikramaditya Singh, with a margin of 74,755 votes from Mandi constituency.
